Showers you can step into, not climb into
For a lot of older adults, the bathtub becomes the most dangerous part of the house. Lifting a leg over a high tub wall on a wet surface is exactly how falls happen. Peak Pro Home Services replaces that barrier with a shower you walk or roll straight into, installed across Yakima and Central Washington. We assess your bathroom, help you choose the right option, and manage the installation with our licensed plumbing partner.
Two ways to lower the barrier
Walk-in showers
A walk-in shower drops the step-over to about three inches, so getting in takes a short, steady step instead of a full climb. We install Kohler walk-in showers, a proven, good-value option, often paired with grab bars, for someone who can still walk mostly on their own. Most walk-in showers run about $8,500 to $9,000 installed.
Wheelchair-accessible roll-in showers
When stepping over any lip is unsafe, a wheelchair-accessible roll-in shower brings the threshold down to under an inch, low enough to roll a wheelchair or walker straight in. We are a Freedom Showers dealer, and the Freedom units come with reinforced walls, so grab bars mount securely right to the shower wall exactly where you need them, with no hunting for studs. You get the zero-barrier access of a full tile shower, usually for about $3,000 to $5,000 less. Most roll-in showers run about $12,500 to $13,000 installed.
A fraction of a full tile remodel
A custom curbless tile shower means tearing the bathroom down to the studs, waterproofing, and days of labor. A Freedom Showers insert or a Kohler walk-in gives you a safe, low-threshold shower for less money and less disruption, usually in a fraction of the time. At your free in-home assessment we measure the space and give you a firm price before any work begins.
Part of a safer bathroom
A low-threshold shower works best alongside the rest of the room. Most installs pair with grab bars and handrails and a comfort-height toilet. See our full range of senior home services in Yakima. Call (509) 537-1842 to book your free assessment.

FAQs
Home accessibility is about making it easier and safer to live in the home you love, whether that means getting through the front door, moving between floors, or feeling steady in the bathroom. If you are caring for a loved one, these decisions carry weight, so here are the questions we hear most often, answered plainly.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a walk-in shower and a wheelchair-accessible roll-in shower?
A walk-in shower lowers the step-over to about three inches, easy for someone who can still take a small, steady step. A wheelchair-accessible roll-in shower brings the threshold down to under an inch, low enough to roll a wheelchair or walker straight in with no meaningful step.
How much does a walk-in or roll-in shower cost?
A walk-in shower runs about $8,500 to $9,000 installed. A Freedom Showers wheelchair-accessible roll-in runs about $12,500 to $13,000, which is roughly $3,000 to $5,000 less than a full curbless tile shower with the same zero-barrier access. We confirm your firm price at the free in-home assessment.
Do I need a full bathroom remodel?
Usually not. Both the Kohler walk-in and the Freedom Showers roll-in are designed to replace your existing tub or shower without gutting the whole bathroom, so they cost far less and take far less time than a custom curbless tile build.
Can I put grab bars in the shower?
Yes. The Freedom Showers roll-in units come with reinforced walls, so grab bars mount securely straight to the shower wall wherever you need them. We place them where your hands naturally reach.
Who installs the shower?
Peak Pro manages the project from assessment to finish. We order the Freedom Showers unit and provide it to our licensed plumbing partner for installation, so the work is done to code with one team accountable for the result.
Does Medicare or insurance help pay for an accessible shower?
Coverage varies by plan, and many plans treat an accessible shower as a home modification rather than medical equipment. Some Medicare Advantage plans and Washington assistance programs can help. Ask us and we will share what we have seen.
